“…These circumstances generally favor valve replacement rather than repair. 28 From our experience, it appears that mitral valve repair can be done in 80% of patients with the Marfan syndrome who undergo mitral valve procedures. Others have found a similar proportion of reparable valves among patients with degenerative mitral valve disease.P: 27,29 As noted earlier, advantages of mitral valve repair over replacement include preservation of the subvalvular apparatus and a lower risk of endocarditis.P: 27, 29, 31 In addition, those patients who underwent isolated mitral valve repair or combined mitral valve repair and replacement of the aortic root with homograft (total of seven patients) were spared long-term anticoagulation.…”

“…Contribuíram, também, para isso as conhecidas complicações decorrentes da troca valvar, como degeneração de biopróteses, infecções, gradientes transvalvares, vazamento paravalvar, hern6lise e eventos tromboembólicos. MURPHY Jr. el alii 31 insistem em afirmar que o sucesso do emprego dessa técnica, hoje amplamente utilizada, depende da experiência de sua aplicação.…”

“…A series of prostheses were developed aiming at adjusting the annular constriction after their implantation as well as allowing the functional movement of the contraction of the mitral annulus which include the prostheses of Puig-Massana [29], Abdulmassih [30], Shumway [31], Sculptor [32] and St.Jude-Biflex [33].…”
